Robert Forster has been playing this on his 2019 tour even though it's a Grant song. Chords are based on how
Robert has been playing it on tour. The recording version has a lot of droning rhythm work; this version works
great playing solo on an acoustic.
[Intro]
Em (XII) strummed to Gm (III), Robert then slides the E string from II to XII
[Verse]
EmIf the Devil had seen your dress Gm
EmHe would've changed his name Gm
EmPut down his fork and moved up above Gm
EmWhy burn in hell when you burn for love? Gm
[Chorus]
AmI know what I mean but just don't say
Cos Gall the old words get in the way
F#mI'll stay with love
Cos that's the right EmwordC baby
That's the right Emword
Cos I Clove you
And that's the right Emword Cbaby
That's the right Emword, the right word G5
[Verse]
EmThere are two kinds of lovers in this Gmworld
EmThose who like diamonds and those who like Gmdirt
EmHere I stand, my face is a Gmmask
EmI'll take it off because you Gmasked
[Chorus]
AmI know what I mean but just don't say
Cos Gall the old words get in the way
F#mI'll stay with love
Cos that's the right Emword Cbaby
That's the right Emword
Cos I Clove you
And that's the right Emword Cbaby
That's the right Emword, the right word
[Bridge]
GSo hold me up on my Cword
GAnd keep me down in the Bmbed
CThere's one thing I should have Dsaid
GWill you keep me safe from the Cworld
GAnd hold me just like a Bmpearl?
CThe light always shines the Dbrightest
In the Emcore of a flame
